oh
I need to tell you this
pay attention
yesterday
after shopping spree
went to dinner
to a wok restaurant
you know that?
wok?
is that English?
well, it's Chinese obviously
but has it been Englished yet?
Brendan zegt:
yer
I know what a wok is...
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
yer
ok
a pan
right
ok so
we're at this restaurant
and I never went wokking before
so I am told
get a plate
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
fill it with raw shit
then hand it to the wokker
or wok's person
and he'll wok it for you
so I'm like
ok whatever
kinda sucks that I have to wait for my food
can't I just order
but I'm like
ok wahtever
I'll humour the asians
so I get a plate
fill it with stuff and go to the wok counter
Brendan zegt:
it is good you get to stack your plate with all the best shit
and then smother it with satay so you can't taste individual foodstuffs
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
there's this tiny old chinese dude
and I give him my plate and he dumps it into a sieve in a pan of hot liquid
I dunno if it was water
wasn't boiling
but was REALLY hot
you can feel the heat right
fkn scorching
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
so okay
dude scrapes the pan a bit with his giant iron spoon
and you can tell it's hot right
Brendan zegt:
probably oil...
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
and he does a bit of oil in it
then he takes his giant spoon and scoops a bit of sauce
and dumps it in the pan
Brendan zegt:
is this going somewhere
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
the pan catches fire
Brendan zegt:
cos I could be 10/15ing you by now
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
like
it's ablaze
I'm like o_o
so THEN
he takes the sieve with my foodstuffs
and dumps it in the wok
the wok EXPLODES
I'm like
O_O
Brendan zegt:
xD
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
so he twirls it around for like 5 seconds
Brendan zegt:
amongst your foodstuffs did you choose gasoline and gunpowder?
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
does this cocktail bar twirly thing with his spoon
and the stuff is on my plate
like
not raw
COOKED
Brendan zegt:
xD
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
this whole thing took like
1:30 tops
minutes, that is
Brendan zegt:
what was the place called
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
I dunno
something like
wok palace or something
Brendan zegt:
some lame pun?
oh
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
wok parace maybe
lolsss
Brendan zegt:
cos when I was in 'terdam there was all these puns with wok
like wok this way
and wok right in
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
it was insane though
there's like
a giant flame where my food used to be
and then it's done
wtf
Brendan zegt:
xD
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
most awesome cookery EVER
Brendan zegt:
choose the roast pork
next time
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
dude
I went back like
Brendan zegt:
it is like grey with red skin or something on the outline
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
15 times
Brendan zegt:
rofl
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
to see him do it again
Brendan zegt:
just bringing various items for him to burn
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
I pretty much had him wok my napkin by the end of it
Brendan zegt:
one imagines that you can identify a really good wok chef by how scarred his face is with hideous burns
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
oh for sure
but yer
that was awesome
Brendan zegt:
n_n
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
I'd recommend you to go do it too sometime
they had bamboo too
btw
I ate it
Brendan zegt:
bamboo shoots are nice
Vincent - BOOKS zegt:
and planned to tell people I ate bamboo
they taste like zoo though
All in all, wokking = fkn awesome. Do it too sometime.
